Japanese beauty

I love geisha pictures.  I was looking

for something else and came across

a stamp of a geisha.  It's been a long

time since I made an Asian card so

I thought it was high time I used the

stamp.

It would have been better if I

had had any coins left, but I had to

make do, so this is a stamp

embossed in gold.  The geisha

is embossed in gold as well.  The 

bamboo is embossed in clear.  I think

it makes a neat background.

 

I had an interview yesterday to be

an interpreter for a young man who

just transferred from another state.

I can't imagine I would get the job

because I'm too slow, but it was

fun to interview.  I understood most

of what the ASL teacher was signing.

I had to ask her to repeat one thing:

"what was your favourite class in

school"  I fingerspelled English and

said I didn't know the sign.  Yes, I

did.  It is the same sign for England.

The problem is, once I learn a sign

for a certain word I have trouble thinking

that it is a sign for another word as well.

The first time I realized this was with

the words worthy and important.

They both mean the same thing.  The

same sign.  But I learned it as worthy

so I didn't put it together that it

meant something else as well.

I work on that, saying to myself other

words the sign could represent when

I'm practicing.  But it was a great

experience, and I'm glad I went.

Technically I would only be a fascilitator

since I'm not licensed as an interpreter

and I'm NOT an interpreter, LOL.

Pam has far more faith in me than I do.

 

Two more pictures I thought I 

would share:

 

I know how they both feel!!!

 

 

Happy Thursday!
